Were it mine, I'd hose the motor out with electrical parts cleaner or break cleaner, then pull the brushes and springs and clean ( or replace ) them, their tubes, and the commutator. After that I'd properly grease the grease tubes, plug it in and run it at full speed till it quit smoking.

You might still have to replace the motor, but I'd try to clean the original one first.
